2009-11-30mac80211: fix spurious delBA handlingJohannes Berg
Lennert Buytenhek noticed that delBA handling in mac80211 was broken and has remotely triggerable problems, some of which are due to some code shuffling I did that ended up changing the order in which things were done -- this was commit d75636ef9c1af224f1097941879d5a8db7cd04e5 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Tue Feb 10 21:25:53 2009 +0100 mac80211: RX aggregation: clean up stop session and other parts were already present in the original commit d92684e66091c0f0101819619b315b4bb8b5bcc5 Author: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> Date: Mon Jan 28 14:07:22 2008 +0200 mac80211: A-MPDU Tx add delBA from recipient support The first problem is that I moved a BUG_ON before various checks -- thereby making it possible to hit. As the comment indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since the ampdu_action callback must already exist when the state is != IDLE. The second problem isn't easily exploitable but there's a race condition due to unconditionally setting the state to OPERATIONAL when a delBA frame is received, even when no aggregation session was ever initiated. All the drivers accept stopping the session even then, but that opens a race window where crashes could happen before the driver accepts it. Right now, a WARN_ON may happen with non-HT drivers, while the race opens only for HT drivers. For this case, there are two things necessary to fix it: 1) don't process spurious delBA frames, and be more careful about the session state; don't drop the lock 2) HT drivers need to be prepared to handle a session stop even before the session was really started -- this is true for all drivers (that support aggregation) but iwlwifi which can be fixed easily. The other HT drivers (ath9k and ar9170) are behaving properly already.

2009-11-29ipv4: additional update of dev_net(dev) to struct *net in ip_fragment.c, ↵David Ford
NULL ptr OOPS ipv4 ip_frag_reasm(), fully replace 'dev_net(dev)' with 'net', defined previously patched into 2.6.29. Between 2.6.28.10 and 2.6.29, net/ipv4/ip_fragment.c was patched, changing from dev_net(dev) to container_of(...). Unfortunately the goto section (out_fail) on oversized packets inside ip_frag_reasm() didn't get touched up as well. Oversized IP packets cause a NULL pointer dereference and immediate hang.

2009-11-29sctp: on T3_RTX retransmit all the in-flight chunksAndrei Pelinescu-Onciul
When retransmitting due to T3 timeout, retransmit all the in-flight chunks for the corresponding transport/path, including chunks sent less then 1 rto ago. This is the correct behaviour according to rfc4960 section 6.3.3 E3 and "Note: Any DATA chunks that were sent to the address for which the T3-rtx timer expired but did not fit in one MTU (rule E3 above) should be marked for retransmission and sent as soon as cwnd allows (normally, when a SACK arrives). ". This fixes problems when more then one path is present and the T3 retransmission of the first chunk that timeouts stops the T3 timer for the initial active path, leaving all the other in-flight chunks waiting forever or until a new chunk is transmitted on the same path and timeouts (and this will happen only if the cwnd allows sending new chunks, but since cwnd was dropped to MTU by the timeout => it will wait until the first heartbeat). Example: 10 packets in flight, sent at 0.1 s intervals on the primary path. The primary path is down and the first packet timeouts. The first packet is retransmitted on another path, the T3 timer for the primary path is stopped and cwnd is set to MTU. All the other 9 in-flight packets will not be retransmitted (unless more new packets are sent on the primary path which depend on cwnd allowing it, and even in this case the 9 packets will be retransmitted only after a new packet timeouts which even in the best case would be more then RTO). This commit reverts d0ce92910bc04e107b2f3f2048f07e94f570035d and also removes the now unused transport->last_rto, introduced in b6157d8e03e1e780660a328f7183bcbfa4a93a19. p.s The problem is not only when multiple paths are there. It can happen in a single homed environment. If the application stops sending data, it possible to have a hung association.

2009-11-19mac80211: fix resumeJohannes Berg
When mac80211 resumes, it currently first sets suspended to false so the driver can start doing things and we can receive frames. However, if we actually receive frames then it can end up starting some work which adds timers and then later runs into a BUG_ON in the timer code because it tries add_timer() on a pending timer. Fix this by keeping track of the resuming process by introducing a new variable 'resuming' which gets set to true early on instead of setting 'suspended' to false, and allow queueing work but not receiving frames while resuming.

Linus pointed out that del_timer_sync() isn't actually needed if we make the timer able to deal with no longer being needed when it gets queued _while_ we're in the locked section that also deletes it. For that the timer function only needs to check the HT_ADDBA_RECEIVED_MSK bit as well as the HT_ADDBA_REQUESTED_MSK bit, only if the former is clear should it do anything.

When we've merged skb's with page frags, and subsequently receive a trailer skb (< MSS) that is not completely non-linear (this can occur on Intel NICs if the packet size falls below the threshold), GRO ends up producing an illegal GSO skb with a frag_list. This is harmless unless the skb is then forwarded through an interface that requires software GSO, whereupon the GSO code will BUG.

Recent commit 8da645e101a8c20c6073efda3c7cc74eec01b87f sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport introduced a regression in the connection setup. The behavior was different between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 case ended up working because the route lookup routing returned a NULL route, which triggered another route lookup later in the output patch that succeeded. In the IPv6 case, a valid route was returned for first call, but we could not find a valid source address at the time since the source addresses were not set on the association yet. Thus resulted in a hung connection. The solution is to set the source addresses on the association prior to adding peers.

Btw, we perhaps would want to forward copied_seq in somewhere or otherwise we might have some nice loop with WARN stuff within but where to do that safely I don't know at this stage until more is known (but it is not made significantly worse by this patch).

bcm_proc_getifname() is called with RTNL and dev_base_lock not held. It calls __dev_get_by_index() without locks, and this is illegal (might crash) Close the race by holding dev_base_lock and copying dev->name in the protected section.

2009-11-06ipip: Fix handling of DF packets when pmtudisc is OFFHerbert Xu
RFC 2003 requires the outer header to have DF set if DF is set on the inner header, even when PMTU discovery is off for the tunnel. Our implementation does exactly that. For this to work properly the IPIP gateway also needs to engate in PMTU when the inner DF bit is set. As otherwise the original host would not be able to carry out its PMTU successfully since part of the path is only visible to the gateway. Unfortunately when the tunnel PMTU discovery setting is off, we do not collect the necessary soft state, resulting in blackholes when the original host tries to perform PMTU discovery. This problem is not reproducible on the IPIP gateway itself as the inner packet usually has skb->local_df set. This is not correctly cleared (an unrelated bug) when the packet passes through the tunnel, which allows fragmentation to occur. For hosts behind the IPIP gateway it is readily visible with a simple ping. This patch fixes the problem by performing PMTU discovery for all packets with the inner DF bit set, regardless of the PMTU discovery setting on the tunnel itself.

2009-11-06netfilter: nf_nat: fix NAT issue in 2.6.30.4+Jozsef Kadlecsik
Vitezslav Samel discovered that since 2.6.30.4+ active FTP can not work over NAT. The "cause" of the problem was a fix of unacknowledged data detection with NAT (commit a3a9f79e361e864f0e9d75ebe2a0cb43d17c4272). However, actually, that fix uncovered a long standing bug in TCP conntrack: when NAT was enabled, we simply updated the max of the right edge of the segments we have seen (td_end), by the offset NAT produced with changing IP/port in the data. However, we did not update the other parameter (td_maxend) which is affected by the NAT offset. Thus that could drift away from the correct value and thus resulted breaking active FTP. The patch below fixes the issue by *not* updating the conntrack parameters from NAT, but instead taking into account the NAT offsets in conntrack in a consistent way. (Updating from NAT would be more harder and expensive because it'd need to re-calculate parameters we already calculated in conntrack.)

For some strange reason the netif_running() check ended up after the actual type change instead of before, potentially causing all kinds of problems if the interface is up while changing the type; one of the problems manifests itself as a warning: WARNING: at net/mac80211/iface.c:651 ieee80211_teardown_sdata+0xda/0x1a0 [mac80211]() Hardware name: Aspire one Pid: 2596, comm: wpa_supplicant Tainted: G W 2.6.31-10-generic #32-Ubuntu Call Trace: [] warn_slowpath_common+0x6d/0xa0 [] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x20 [] ieee80211_teardown_sdata+0xda/0x1a0 [mac80211] [] ieee80211_if_change_type+0x4a/0xc0 [mac80211] [] ieee80211_change_iface+0x61/0xa0 [mac80211] [] cfg80211_wext_siwmode+0xc7/0x120 [cfg80211] [] ioctl_standard_call+0x58/0xf0 (http://www.kerneloops.org/searchweek.php?search=ieee80211_teardown_sdata) Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

While I'm trying to analyse the problem more let's first fix the crash. I think the real fix may be to avoid doing _anything_ if it ended up being NULL, but right now I'm not sure yet. I think http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14342 might also be this issue.
